519 Tall Ships Dr #119, Salem, SC 29676

What sets this Keowee Key residence apart is the combination of lakeside access and a thoughtfully updated interior. Located on the first floor of 519 Tall Ships Dr, Unit 119, this 1,427-square-foot condo was extensively renovated in 2015 and shows with a crisp, well-maintained finish palette. Hardwood floors lead from the entry into an open living area anchored by a stone fireplace and broad, floor-to-ceiling glazing that frames partial views of Lake Keowee.

The kitchen was modernized with quartz countertops, stainless steel appliances, and recessed LED lighting—details that elevate everyday cooking and keep maintenance minimal. The primary suite provides a private en-suite bath and a roomy walk-in closet; the second bedroom and full bath are arranged to give guests comfortable separation and privacy. Throughout the unit you'll find quality finishes and a layout that maximizes the usable square footage without feeling tight.

Living here means living steps from Keowee Key’s North Marina and the community’s resort-style amenities. Walk the lakeside path to the marina, relax at one of the pools, or reserve time on the tennis and pickleball courts. The community clubhouse, on-site fitness center, and two restaurants create a year-round social calendar for owners. Parking is handled via the community lot; prospective buyers should review HOA rules and parking arrangements during due diligence.

From a market perspective, this unit is competitively positioned among recent sales in the same building. Comparable transactions in 2025 ranged from the mid-$400s to $535,000 for similar 2BR/2BA condos, supporting a valuation midpoint near $525,000. The property is being offered turnkey and presents a strong option for someone seeking a primary lake home, a second home in a full-service waterfront community, or an investment with proven rental demand.

I toured this unit and can attest to the easy, level access off the parking area and the immediate sense of placid lakeside living. Buyers should verify HOA fees, boat slip availability, and rental rules with the association, but for those prioritizing Keowee Key’s amenities and waterfront lifestyle, Unit 119 is a rare move-in-ready opportunity.

Keowee Key is a resort-style lakeside community on Lake Keowee offering a social yet relaxed lifestyle. Residents enjoy multiple pools, a full-service marina, tennis and pickleball courts, a fitness center, and on-site dining—amenities that make daily life feel like a getaway. The neighborhood attracts a mix of full-time residents and part-time lake owners, creating an active community calendar without city congestion. Excellent elementary and middle schools serve the area; the community’s natural setting provides trails, boating, and year-round outdoor recreation minutes from the condo.
